International Madeleine McCann: And Eye For Denise Pipitone And Finding Rose Pizem
MADDIE WATCH - Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann, Kate McCann and Gerry McCann
DAILY TELEGRAPH: “Italy’s Madeleine McCann ‘found safe and well after four years’”
Italy has it’s own Maddie. Like Isreal? Are we working throught alphabet? If so, look out Jamaica…
Urgent DNA tests are being carried out on the eight year old girl found in Greece to see if she is Denise Pipitone, who vanished in 2004. She missing from outside her grandmother’s house while playing.
And?
News of the discovery will bring fresh hope to Gerry and Kate McCann after their daughter disappeared in Portugal last year, and for the parents of Ben Needham who vanished in 1991 from the same Greek island, Kos, where the Italian girl was found.
Like Our Maddie?
The DNA tests were ordered after Denise’s mother Piera, shown photographs of the girl found in Greece, said the “shape of the eyes was exactly that” of her daughter.
DAILY MIRROR: “DNA tests on ‘Italian Madeleine’”
Madeleine McCann has been missing since last May. A spokesman for her parents said: “If this is Denise then it will give Kate and Gerry immense strength and hope that Madeleine will be found.”
TIMES: “Missing girl Denise Pipitone ‘found begging’ after four-year search”
Greek police traced the Roma woman, 34, who was charged with abducting a minor. One police official said that the girl had the same birthmark under her left eye as Denise, and only spoke Italian. She is being kept under observation in the island’s hospital. The case is as well known in Italy as that of Madeleine McCann. Denise’s mother, Piera Maggio, has made repeated appeals on television for help in finding her.
Italians know of their own missing child as well as they do of Our Maddie?
DAILY MAIL: “Girl dubbed Italy’s Madeleine McCann ‘found alive and well’ four years after she vanished”
Denise’s mother Piera, who said the birthmark and the shape of the eyes were ‘exactly the same’ as her daughter’s. She added that there had been numerous false alarms in the past, so she would not allow herself to get her hopes up.
But the media can get your hopes up for you…
Last night the McCanns’ family spokesman Clarence Mitchell said: ‘If these reports are true it is fantastic news for her family. But it would also give hope to Kate and Gerry because this is exactly the sort of situation that could prove that a child can go missing and be found safe and well.’
If…
THE SCOTSMAN: “Remains may be missing girl”
ISRAELI divers yesterday found a suitcase containing remains police believe belong to a missing girl whose grandfather is being held on suspicion of killing her.
The discovery in Tel Aviv’s Yarkon River marked a breakthrough in the case of four-year old Rose Pizem – missing since May. Her disappearance has transfixed Israel.
HA-ARETZ (Israel): “Until the next tragedy”
Faced with a suspect with a devilish face, an exciting and unusual family story, searches in the river - the Yarkon has never before raised such interest - and a murder without a body, we absolutely wallowed in this story. Oh, how we loved hearing the sexologist talk about the couple’s therapy the two lovers received, grandfather and mother forever. How we wanted to peek further and further into the “Israeli Madeleine McCann” family, which suddenly appeared in our lives; we invaded it with a mixture of voyeurism, gossip and a pinch, just a pinch, of real concern for the missing girl’s fate. Someone will make a film about it.
GREAT YARMOUTH MERCURY: “Visit church in cyberspace”
At 900 years old, a global opening ceremony for Great Yarmouth’s magnificent parish church might seem somewhat belated…
But in cyber world virtual people called avatars are teleporting into St Nicholas’ for a zoom around the vestry or even a stroll on the roof.
For the landmark building has been transported lock stock and wonky weather cock into the 3D virtual reality world of Second Life and now ranks among hundreds of real buildings turned into cartoon locations on the booming internet enterprise where 10m people from all over the world mingle.
Second Life…
Playboy has its own bunny-shaped island and British police have posted missing Madeleine McCann posters on virtual buildings.
Have you seen Madeleine McCann?

Miss Match, you’re right, so any intelligent person would have waited until they were witnessed safely home and to bed before reporting such, no?
Or are you telling me you suscribe to one of the home embalming, edible evidence, traveling corpse scenarios?

Eddie the retriever is trained to detect the scent given off from a DEAD body, Eddie indicated that such a scent was present in apartment 5A.
A 3 year old young girl Maddie had been reported missing from department 5A prior to this. The parents of Maddie made no secret of the fact that they had been leaving the girl, and her two younger siblings alone in the apartment for several nights.
You should all ask yourselves 2 questions IMO.
1) Would the parents have escaped charges for negligence if the police had discovered the body (For whatever reason) laid behind the sofa ?
2) If such a charge of negligence had been proven what would happen to the career of practising doctors ?
—————————–
In answer to your questions:
1) They’d be banged up in the slammer.
2) They’d be screwed.
And this gives motivation for a cover up, IMO.

Civil prosecutions of Doctors do not usually impact on their careers, unless there is a direct relevance to their ability to perform their job.

A sensible rational discussion of ideas and Jo feels miffed because she can’t participate on that level - why am I not surprised?
September 12th, 2008 at 7:21 pm
Now, that was funny.
And, M&A, yes, they can, and that report was literally nauseating. When they got to, “…and doctors think they [the infant's fingernails] may have been removed by force.” I felt as sick as I ever have. And I am old.

Of course i would like to pick up the point of a strike that would kill their daughter.
How hard to you think she would have to be hit before she would die?
Okay then maybe she didn’t die from the blow but infact fell and hit her head on the floor which ultimately killed her. But then would there be a need for a cover up? No, you’re right, there wouldn’t.
I’ve been in situations before and have seen people put to the ground from heavy blows to the head. Not one has died as a result.

pam, you said this
‘My point being that any accident we have managed to imagine in the past year could have very easily been covered without the need for some huge conspiracy’
i agree with that, but i think there are two things that would be difficult to cover up, one is sexual abuse and the other is an injury due to a strike leading to death. i think the latter would invaribly lead to charges of manslaughter.

How regular do you think a child dies in this country from a blow by a parent with no known aggression?

Garth - the fact that I don’t exactly know how it could have been done doesn’t make it impossible!

No you’re right! I guess you can’t rule out Father Christmas being the kidnapper either…
Liza
To keep going on that a cover up can’t be ruled out you need to have a theory as to how they could have possibly done it. If you can’t come up with a plausible theory then your argument is pointless.
